New Bronco in South Orange County
New Bronco in South Orange County
My name is Rich i've lived in Orange County for the last 25 years and after looking for the right bronco for the last 6 years I finally found it down the street! I actually sold my M5 after I bought it and its my everyday driver and fun on the weekends car. The two previous owners did all the major work to it so I can only take credit for recent detail work and sorting out some nagging issues with it like vacuum leaks, torn interior, etc..
I wanted a Bronco that was solid, tough, and could do either the mountains or the desert and everything in between - and I got it!
It has a 351w long block with BBK throttle body, 4eod trans with cooler, partial custom engine cage, JBA headers wtih magnaflow mufflers, fully waterproofed engine compartment, Poly fenders front and rear, Alcoa classics, Bilstein coil overs front, Bilstein resevoirs rear, 18in travel front, 15in rear, Camburg Giant axle housings, Camburg Giant hangars, limiting straps, custom roof rack, custom interior with buckets in back, 5 pt harnesses, front suede racing seats, relocated spare ( interior ), Alpine head unit, bluetooth, air, 50in led roof, 30in led front bumper, 22in rear led roof, and two 4in leds rear bumper - PHEW!
I did my first serious offroad ( if you can call it that ) excursion up Saddleback last weekend and had a blast. Always looking for someone to tag along with as my wife isn't into it and my kids are too little.
Glad to be here!
